Why do the Riskiest SOC Alerts Go Unanswered? Security operations teams are drowning in alerts. But the real problem isn't always alert volume; it's the blind spots. The most dangerous alerts are the ones no one is investigating. A recent report from The Hacker News examined why certain high-risk alert categories - WAF, DLP, OT/IoT, dark web intelligence, and supply chain signals- consistently

Agentic AI is already running in production environments across many organizations today. It is executing tasks, consuming data, and taking actions — most likely without meaningful involvement from the security team. The industry conversation has largely framed this as a question of policy: allow it, restrict it, or monitor it? However, that framing misses the point.  The more urgent

TeamPCP, the threat actor behind the recent supply chain attack spree, has been linked to the compromise of the npm and PyPI packages from TanStack, UiPath, Mistral AI, OpenSearch, and Guardrails AI as part of a fresh Mini Shai-Hulud campaign. The affected npm packages have been modified to include an obfuscated JavaScript file ("router_init.js") that's designed to profile the execution

OpenAI has launched Daybreak, a new cybersecurity initiative that brings together frontier artificial intelligence (AI) model capabilities and Codex Security to help organizations identify and patch vulnerabilities before attackers find a way in using the same issues. "Daybreak combines the intelligence of OpenAI models, the extensibility of Codex as an agentic harness, and our partners across

American educational technology company Instructure, the parent company of Canvas, said it reached an "agreement" with a decentralized cybercrime extortion group after it breached its network and threatened to leak stolen information from thousands of schools and universities. In an update shared on Monday, the Utah-based firm said it "reached an agreement with the unauthorized actor involved in

Apple on Monday officially released iOS 26.5 with support for end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to Rich Communication Services (RCS) in beta as part of a "cross-industry effort" to replace traditional SMS with a more secure alternative. To that end, E2EE RCS messaging is rolling out to iPhone users running iOS 26.5 with supported carriers and Android users on the latest version of Google Messages.

Checkmarx has confirmed that a modified version of the Jenkins AST plugin was published to the Jenkins Marketplace.

As of writing, Checkmarx has released

A threat actor named Mr_Rot13 has been attributed to the exploitation of a recently disclosed critical cPanel flaw to deploy a backdoor codenamed Filemanager on compromised environments. The attack exploits CVE-2026-41940, a vulnerability impacting cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) that could result in an authentication bypass and allow remote attackers to gain elevated control of the control

Google on Monday disclosed that it identified an unknown threat actor using a zero-day exploit that it said was likely developed with an artificial intelligence (AI) system, marking the first time the technology has been put to use in the wild in a malicious context for vulnerability discovery and exploit generation. The activity is said to be the work of cybercrime threat actors who appear to

Rough Monday. Somebody poisoned a trusted download again, somebody else turned cloud servers into public housing, and a few crews are still getting into boxes with bugs that should’ve died years ago — the same old holes, same lazy access paths, same “how the hell is this still open” feeling. One report this week basically reads like a guy tripped over root access by accident and decided to stay
